So.

Around this time last year, I was feeling vaguely un-great. And so I made an offer.

Right now, I myself am doing pretty well, albeit in a crazy busy sort of way - but a lot of you people I care about are going through tough things, and when you guys are sad, that makes me sad, too. I wanted to take the time to go through

innerbrat's love meme earlier this week and tell you all about your fabulousness, but every time I opened up the page a little voice shouted "No time for love, Dr. Jones!" in my head and I reluctantly closed it down and went back to my reading/take-home midterm/thesis draft.

After today, though, life hopefully slows down a bit, at least for a week - and so I am repeating my offer from last year. If there's something I can do to make you happier, this post is a place for you to request it. I will write fic, both new requests and old ones I never got around to doing and forgot about; I will make icons; I will tell you my thoughts on yaoi; I will upload music that reminds me of you or that I think you would like; or, if you want, just tag in and I will tell you some of the myriad reasons why I think you are awesome.

Please don't be shy about taking advantage of this. I really want to do stuff for you guys, because you all mean a lot to me.

And for the time being, I will trundle back to my thesis chapter, the completed draft of which must be done today before I go off to see Titus Andronicus tonight. I got into a pretty good thesis-writing groove last night before I fell over, so here's hoping I can manage that again!

Iiiiiicons! Of...you know what, just random stuff, I think. If you could find one of a woman, or just a woman's hands, with a snake coiled around them, that'd be LOVELY, but just...random icons that you think I might like.

And...*grins* Be my guest!

I will do my best! :D Tomorrow is going to be an icon-making day, clearly. (Which makes me happy - I find icon-making totally cathartic. And also addicting.)

Also, re: your awesome: dude, the things your brain comes up with, I have a feeling I could give you a random assortment of objects and say "OKAY, NOW TURN THIS INTO WORD ART. GO!!!" and you would manage to come up with something gorgeous and fabulous that would utterly blow me away. And then all the objects would have backstory, and I would be nodding sagely and going, "yes, that totally makes sense! wow, I never thought of that!" and you would just sit there and beam at me serenely. And then I would hug you, because you're awesome. (You know. If you were not across the whole world from me. *grumpy*)

I have great faith in you to make pretty icons. But, seriously, if you can't find woman + snake or snake + woman's hands thing, don't fret. It seems to be hard without having an apple or sex involved.

...*BEAMS!* Although...yes. The objects would have backstory *hides face in hands* I CANNOT HELP MYSELF.

(and curses for this whole otherside of the planet business!)

And icons for you! :D I have a couple woman's hand+snake and I also found a few of a snake in a woman's hair that you might find useful. And then a few random!

Oh, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! THAAAAAAANK YOU! SO MUCH! WILL BE USING. WHEEE, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
